"nobody" wrote in message om... I'm not supporting lying in any way. But, there is no reason to advertise your mode of transportation. Personally it seems pretentious and ostentatious other than in a passing remark or in response to a direct question to reveal that you are traveling in such style. When somebody asks what time is it, you don't say "Look at my Rolex!" Since 9/11 no one thinks business travel is a perk anymore. Even getting to fly F is seen as merely a lighter form of punishment. All clients cared about were the ticket prices. CWK is right, when cornered we can be honest and justify the flight with the same reasons that we justify the purchase, umm... if we justify the purchase. The fact is that if you're making enough money to seriously consider justifying flying your teams around by private jet, you're probably making a killing on the software. How price-sensitive are your customers now and are you seen as being low-cost or producing an extremely high ROI? To be fair there can be benefits to this too, though. Companies like to feel that they are doing business with winners, more so the higher up the ladder you go. Flying in on your own jet certainly projects that image. Every client will be different. -cwk. |
